Nothing at all

Radio question of the day:

Which is Africa's most populous nation?
Which is its largest by size?
Which of its nations has the largest economy?

Huh? Like we care! We're Americans damnitall! We don't gotta care 'bout nowheres else. Hrmpf.

******************

It has been scientifically proven that if we drink one litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than one kilo of Escherichia coli bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are drinkin' a lotta shit! Actual poop.

But, we do not run that risk when drinking wine because alcohol has to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting.

So, it's better to drink wine and stuff and talk shit, than to drink water and be full of shit. Just sayin'.

(No need to thank me for this valuable information. I am doing it as a public service.)

In other news: Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in liquid form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable for use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to literally pour himself a stiff one.

Obviously we can no longer call this a soft drink. It also gives new meaning to the names of "cocktails," and "highballs." Pepsi will market the new concoction by the name Mount and Do.

****************

Nigeria is Africa's most populous nation. Sudan is largest by area. South Africa has the largest economy by far. As if you care. You guys. Shallow.

Now you know why beer and wine were sooooo popular before there was such a thing as treated water. It was safer. People knew this.

But more importantly, wine is far MORE FUN to drink than water!!!

Did you notify the "Wine Industry" of your intention to post this information Lucy? there should be a case of wine at least in it for you.

I was reading a pole which said that 80% of high school seniors didn't even know which continent Sudan was on. Not only that, they couldn't find Iraq on a map. Bad enough? Nope, they couldn't find NEW YORK!
I really feel like kicking my son's ass for not getting into a better college. He had no problem with the questions but that is what private education will do for you. It isn't all about the kids "feelings" and "self esteem", it is about learning, discipline and respect. And where the hell was I going with this??? Errrr, Oh, yeah...highball LOL

Fred said...

I drink about eight glasses of water a day. Holy shit!

Mikki Marshall said...

OldHorsetailSnake said...

Hard to believe that I got ALL THREE of the questions? Well, I didn't live 75 and 240/365ths for nothing, for pete's sake!

Viagra will give you a stiff upper lip.

Kyahgirl said...

Rachel said...

Meegan said...

I'm so glad that I recently upped my daily water intake to "cleanse my system." I will switch back to wine!
